Pump and Valve

The pump and valve industry is crucial for various sectors, including petroleum explorationmining, offshore platforms, and petrochemical heavy industry. Reliable sealing solutions are essential to ensure the efficient operation of equipment under extreme conditions. Sonkit as a leading manufacturer of high-performance metal seals, provides durable and dependable metal ring seals designed to meet the rigorous demands of these applications.

Metal Seal Applications in the Pump and Valve Industry

Sonkit metal seals are integral to the functionality of pumps and valves across a range of industries:

  • Petroleum Exploration:

High-pressure environments demand seals capable of withstanding extreme conditions, and Sonkit metal seals provide the necessary durability.

  • Mining:

Mining operations involve abrasive materials and harsh conditions, where Sonkit seals ensure long-lasting performance.

  • Offshore Platforms:

The corrosive saltwater environment requires seals with superior resistance, a challenge Sonkit's metal seals are designed to meet.

  • Petrochemical Heavy Industry:

High-temperature and high-pressure applications in petrochemical plants benefit from the reliability of Sonkit metal seals.

  • Refining Equipment:

Consistent performance and reliability are critical in refining processes, making Sonkit seals a preferred choice.

  • Pressure Vessels:

Sonkit's metal seals maintain integrity under high pressure, ensuring the safety and efficiency of pressure vessels.

  • Valves:

Sonkit C-rings, including externally open designs, provide robust sealing solutions for various valve types, including butterfly, ball, and process control valves.

Metal Seal Advantages in the Pump and Valve Industry

Sonkit's metal O-rings and C-rings are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures and pressures, making them ideal for use in pumps and valves. These seals are crafted from high-performance alloys such as Inconel 718 and Inconel X-750, known for their exceptional resistance to oxidation and high-temperature environments (Material Selection for Metal Ring Seals).


Sonkit metal ring seals offer several key advantages for pump and valve applications:

  • High-Temperature and High-Pressure Resistance:

Sonkit seals are designed to perform in extreme conditions, withstanding temperatures up to 650°C and pressures up to 200 MPa. Specific designs, like externally open C-rings, can handle even more extreme temperatures (-200°C to 800°C) and pressures (up to 100 MPa).

  • Material Excellence:

Seals are made from high-performance alloys such as Inconel 718 and Inconel X-750, known for their exceptional resistance to oxidation and structural integrity at elevated temperatures. This ensures long-term reliability even under demanding conditions.

  • Longevity and Reliability:

Metal seals are engineered for long-term performance. Their robust construction and high-quality materials mean they can last significantly longer than traditional seals, reducing the need for frequent replacements and minimizing downtime.

  • Superior Corrosion Resistance:

Sonkit C-rings offer superior corrosion resistance compared to non-metallic seals, making them suitable for harsh environments and corrosive media.

  • Enhanced Valve Performance:

Specifically designed C-rings, like externally open designs, optimize sealing performance when integrated with valve seats, improving the safety and stability of various valve types.
